ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Concert Orchestra

A live concert by the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Concert Orchestra. Holmboe: Symphony No 13. Dudley: Northern Lights. Nielsen: Saul and David (excerpt). Plus Sibelius, Berwald, McCabe and Grieg.

We have no fewer than six live concerts in Afternoon on 3 this week, starting today with the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Concert Orchestra conducted by Owain Arwel Hughes live from Watford Colosseum. Their programme picks up on Afternoon on 3's Nordic and Baltic season, featuring music by Nielsen and Sibelius alongside a symphony by the Danish composer Vagn Holmboe which was written for today's conductor Owain Arwel Hughes, and Anne Dudley's Northern Lights which was written for the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Concert Orchestra when she was Composer in Residence.
Presented by Penny Gore.
After the live concert we're back to Broadcasting House where Verity Sharp presents recent recordings by the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Philharmonic of music by Grieg and John McCabe, in his 75th year.
